It was great to see it again. Bouncing Stone is bizarre, there were about a dozen of us on the beach so the stones were flying about, lucky nobody got their eye taken out!

One of the reasons I'm pssed off is that I should be in Melbourne (the plan is always to spend Dec/Jan/Feb there). Whether or not I'd ride my Postie the 1900 miles to FNQ is a moot point but my son has a camper and it fits in the back. He also rides and next time is taking me to Southend in SA, I live in Southend on Sea in Essex. :D

Love the drone footage! It's hard for me to take in the sheer scale and distances involved in Australia as a lifelong inhabitant of this small island in the north atlantic! Makes a nice change to watch after our short wet winter days. Live the dream!

I was also impressed with the drone views. I'd be tempted to investigate using one out there as well but not here because my house is less than a mile from an airport.

Thanks guys,
Drone footage does make it "special" when you can show the scenery from a different point of view.
It takes a hell of a lot of time to do on the way but its well worth it.
In the next video's shots were made from two angles while I was crossing a stream on the Honda, drone in the air and a camera on the tripod on the floor.

Part 37: Australia / 4

Proper off road with the postie bike. Crossing creeks, loose sand and struggling to keep the bike upright.
And also in this video great dronefootage...
